They def. don't trust Jones as a blocker but you aren't starting him to catch passes on blitz-check-then-checkdown routes and you don't get points for blitzes picked up. You are playing him for designed passes to him and designed runs to him, both of which he CAN break for TDs. I think he took a screen to the house this year already...

And with the Ravens run defense and issues on offense, I don't think it's obvious that the Raiders will be in full-blown catch-up mode all game. I think Jones will get a healthy number of touches. But I'm an optimist. And crazy.

Well I can only share my knowledge and opinion. Good luck tonight sir I hope Ballard hasa muscle hamster type game.

It's appreciated. Even if I started Ballard, anyway.

Lloyd's matchup is too good to ignore. Unfortunately for both of us, I have him playing in the only league I own him so he's sure to suck.

What do you guys think??

Tough call. I'd stay away from the Saints backfield. It's a toss up as to who might score each week and I hate chasing TDs knowing a guy will get me 3 points without one. The homerun shot is (still) Jones. As an added bonus, I didn't start him, which always bodes well for a player's production.
